The burgeoning of medical sociology has sometimes been accompanied by unfortunate parochialism and the presence of opposing intellectual camps that ignore and even impugn each other's work. We have lost opportunities to achieve creative discourse and integration of different perspectives, methods, and findings. At this stage we should consider how we can foster creative integration within our field.
医学社会学的蓬勃发展有时伴随着不幸的狭隘主义，以及对立学术阵营的存在，这些阵营相互忽视甚至诋毁对方的工作。我们失去了进行创造性对话以及整合不同观点、方法和研究结果的机会。在这个阶段，我们应该思考如何在我们的领域内促进创造性的整合。
